Comments on: United States Supreme Court Hands Patrick Kennedy His Reprieve http://stolenboy.com/2008/06/25/united-states-supreme-hands-patrick-kennedy-his-reprieve/ by Michael Mehas Mon, 09 Jan 2012 19:51:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Stolen Boy http://stolenboy.com/2008/06/25/united-states-supreme-hands-patrick-kennedy-his-reprieve/#comment-180 Thu, 26 Jun 2008 16:25:37 +0000 http://michaelmehas.wordpress.com/?p=191#comment-180 It is because we don’t have any kind of rehabilitative system. Killing them off doesn’t rehabilitate them either. Just spraying Black Flag down the ant hole doesn’t really eleviate the problem, does it. There will be a lot more ants coming from where those left off.

Besides, anyone who sits there wishing others to die, because they become a product of a senseless system, raises questions about this person’s humanity. How could someone WANT another person dead? Especially when they don’t even know that person. Maybe if you’d try putting your mind into a compassionate perspective to find solutions, then we can talk about creating a system that does teach young men the responsibilities they need to maneuver through the obstacle course called life. We more compassionate thoughts about life than hateful opinions about killing everyone we disapprove of, whether they’ve been convicted of murder or not…

Not all of us would kill a 15 yr old kid who was supposedly a “friend”. If you look at statistics with the “young troubled men” of the world, 9 outta 10 times they do not become rehabilitated….they stay troubled and continue with their crimes. Most of them end up worse then they were before.
